Saying Goodbye to a Last Chance

Take the broom and sweep the floors
Sweep away the ever mores
Sweep the blame right out the door
I sweep it all and then I mop with bleach.

And when at last the mopping's done
I grab more cleaners and a yellow rag
I wipe the grime off all the surfaces
I scrub as if my sanity depends on it

Which it does !

And last comes the spray disinfectant
I use it everywhere and breathe in its toxicity
I marvel at the way 99.5% of all germs are irradicated.
Wondering how many fish I killed

Knowing that everything dirty is now cleaned.
I'll sleep well in my bed of clean sheets.
Tomorrow the laundry will get washed.
All trace and smells will be gone.

Starting 2026, alone but clean.
Lonely but clear headed
Responsible for nothing and no one but myself.

Just a guy not enough for anyone except himself.

AND THAT'S GOOD ENOUGH FOR ME !
